I told my therapist,

“I keep falling for people who never really choose me back.”

She didn't give me comfort.
Hearing her, my whole body went still.

Here's what she just replied:
“That’s because you’re still trying to get the love you never got.”

We don’t chase people because we love pain.

We chase people because, at some point,
we were taught love must be chased.

Not received.
Not felt.

But earned, through performance, perfection, persistence.
If love felt like a reward in your childhood,

you’ll keep confusing emotional unavailability with intimacy.

Because now, rejection doesn’t just hurt.

It feels familiar.

On 16 February 1943 Heinrich Himmler gave the order to demolish the Warsaw ghetto.

“For reasons of security I herewith order that the Warsaw ghetto be pulled down after the concentration camp has been moved: all parts of houses that can be used, and other materials of all Image
2/n kinds, are first to be made use of. The razing of the ghetto and the relocation of the concentration camp are necessary, as otherwise we would probably never establish quiet in Warsaw, and the prevalence of crime cannot be stamped out as long as the ghetto remains. Image
3/n An overall plan for the razing of the ghetto is to be submitted to me. In any case we must achieve the disappearance from sight of the living-space for 500,000 sub-humans (Untermenschen) that has existed up to now, but could never be suitable for Germans,

I built a “shadow advisory board” of AI personas to critique my business ideas.

Includes:

• Peter Thiel
• Naval
• Buffett
• YC partner
• skeptical VC

Here’s how I structured it ↓ Image
Copy-paste this into Claude/ChatGPT:

---

You are my Shadow Advisory Board - a panel of 5 distinct investor personas who will critique my business idea from different angles.

BOARD MEMBERS:

1. PETER THIEL (Contrarian Technologist)
- Focus: Is this a monopoly or commodity? What's the 0→1 insight?
- Questions: "What do you believe that nobody else does?" "Can this scale to $1B+ without competition?"
- Style: Philosophical, first-principles, anti-consensus

2. NAVAL RAVIKANT (Leverage Maximalist)
- Focus: Can this scale without trading time for money? Where's the leverage?
- Questions: "Does this have code, media, or capital leverage?" "Will this make you rich or just busy?"
- Style: Wisdom-dense, product-market fit obsessed, long-term thinking

3. WARREN BUFFETT (Economics Fundamentalist)
- Focus: What's the moat? Can a 12-year-old understand the business model?
- Questions: "Would you buy this entire business tomorrow?" "What's the durable competitive advantage?"
- Style: Simple, margin-of-safety focused, customer-centric

4. Y COMBINATOR PARTNER (Startup Operator)
- Focus: Can you build an MVP in 2 weeks? Will users literally cry if this disappears?
- Questions: "How are you getting your first 10 customers?" "What's your weekly growth rate?"
- Style: Tactical, execution-focused, speed-obsessed

5. SKEPTICAL VC (Devil's Advocate)
- Focus: What kills this company? Why has nobody done this already?
- Questions: "What's your unfair advantage?" "Why won't Google/Amazon crush you in 6 months?"
- Style: Brutal, risk-focused, pattern-matching

---

CRITIQUE STRUCTURE:

For each board member:
1. Opening reaction (1 sentence - enthusiastic or skeptical)
2. Key insight from their lens (2-3 sentences)
3. Critical question they'd ask (1 question)
4. Red flag or opportunity they see (1 sentence)

End with:
- CONSENSUS: What all 5 agree on
- SPLIT DECISION: Where they disagree most
- VOTE: Fund (Yes/No) + confidence level (1-10)

---

MY BUSINESS IDEA:
[Paste your idea here]

Give me the full board critique.Image
Used this to validate a SaaS idea last week.

Thiel killed it: "You're solving a vitamin, not a painkiller"
Naval killed it: "No leverage - you're building a consulting firm with software"
Skeptical VC killed it: "Bubble. com will have this feature in 3 months"

Saved me 6 months building the wrong thing.

BREAKING: Someone just built an AI that codes and browses the web at the same time.

It's called Accomplish and it runs locally without burning through API credits.

No Claude Desktop. No Cursor. No monthly subscriptions.

100% Opensource. Image
Accomplish is an open-source AI coding agent that gives Claude Sonnet 4.5 two superpowers simultaneously:

- Computer use (browse web, click buttons, take screenshots)
- Code execution (write and run Python, analyze files)

Both. At the same time. In one interface.
Here's what makes it different:

Most AI coding tools force you to choose:
- Claude Desktop → computer use only
- Cursor → coding only
- Windsurf → coding only

Accomplish combines both capabilities so Claude can research a library AND implement it without switching tools. Image

Thread 👇🏼🧵🪡
You’ll often see people using posters or maps from the past to prove their side is correct in the Israel/Palestine dispute. This has become more viscous and dishonest with the October pogrom of 2023 and the subsequent war.

This thread is about most of the posters you’ll see commonly used in the cause of proving that Palestine was an actual country rather than a province of the Ottoman Empire taken over from the British and eventually liberated by the Jews as Israel. 

Bookmark this page if you think you might need to use it to refute nonsense posts. 

This poster is gorgeous. A classic from the  1930s, it clearly was printed by the Mandate tourist office. 

The printer, listed on the side, is Jewish. These posters are the product of Jewish, mostly German artists (as were their correlatives in Britain were in that era). This one is often re-printed using the term “reclaimed” (second poster) - that’s the activists erasing the Jewish origins of the poster. Classic re-badging. (See the one on the right, graffiti on the walls).

1/6Image
Image
In fact, you can see these two posters are in the same style. 
It is undoubtedly the same artist. The same designer. 
These posters were put out by the Jewish Agency, the representative body of Jews in the Mandate before it became Israel. The legend at the top tells us this clearly. 

Activist antizionists will often cut the legend off or remove it. 
2/6Image
Image
These three look like the work of another artist. 

It seems the first has had its provenance cut off as has the third. 

The second one is clearly aimed at Jews. It is clearly by Jews for Jews, while the others are more universal.

When Silver Pricing Becomes Administrative, Not Market-DrivenImage
1/

A major silver controversy just erupted in China.
A fund linked to UBS changed its valuation methodology after market close — and retail investors paid the price.

This isn’t just about losses.

It’s about transparency.
2/

According to South China Morning Post, a silver futures fund switched from using domestic futures pricing to international silver prices — without prior warning.
Investors expected losses capped around ~17%.

They woke up to −31%.

That difference matters.

1/ Are alcohol stocks finally bottoming? Image
2/ High-profile names like Diageo, Pernod Ricard and Brown Forman are finally starting to show signs of life.

It could be due to hedge funds degrossing, but also signs of industry inventories peaking. Image
3/ The overall picture hasn't been great: in the Asia-Pacific, 30% of people report drinking less, while only 15% are drinking more. India being the only exception. Image

The Quiet Collapse: How America Lost Its Moral Authority
There was a time when the United States didn't need to defend its democratic credentials. It simply pointed to them. Free press. Rule of law. Stable institutions. Predictable alliances. That era is fading, and the numbers tell the story.Image
The Press Freedom Catastrophe. In the latest global press freedom ranking from Reporters Without Borders, the United States has fallen to 55th place in the world.
Not top 10. Not top 20. Not even top 40.

Fifty-fifth!
The country that once lectured others about democratic backsliding now sits behind nations it used to advise on reform. That is structural decline. When a country falls that far on press freedom, it's not because of a bad news cycle.
